Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, July 26

Our passions deepen when we hold on to a feeling instead of releasing it. The fixed Scorpio Moon brings self-assurance if we consciously focus the intensity of our emotions; however, too much inflexibility invites frustration. Magnetic Venus aligns with electric Uranus, tempting us with sudden attractions. Meanwhile, we can inadvertently overpower others as an awkward Mercury-Pluto quincunx makes it difficult to estimate the impact of our words.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Waiting for what happens next requires more effort than just dealing with a current situation, yet an immediate solution seems elusive. You wish that you could relax your jangled nerves today, but it feels as if you have a significant part to play in a power struggle and haven’t been given a script to follow. Being flexible is crucial; stay loose and you will be ready to engage in the drama as it happens.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You might wish that you could get back to a familiar routine today, but something isn’t quite right. No matter how many ways you analyze the facts, you still don’t seem to be able to put your finger on the source of the problem. Unfortunately, you can’t just banish the lingering discontentment by avoiding the subject. Thankfully, talking with your friends in a cool and calm manner helps to ease your emotional discomfort and puts you in a positive frame of mind.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You think that you know what you should do today, especially if you’ve given it a lot of thought before you made up your mind. Unfortunately, reality isn’t necessarily as cooperative as you wish. It might seem as if the universe is resisting your decisions now for no apparent reason. Don’t be overly concerned if there’s a gap between your desires and your current circumstances. Keep your eye on the destination; although it may take a few days, the conflict will resolve on its own.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You might feel as if you have stewed in your own juices long enough. You’re ready to act on what you know today, even if you cannot see where your current decision will ultimately lead. It may be challenging to accept the instability at work, but your needs must also be taken into consideration when making choices now. Don’t reject what doesn’t fit in; success is more attainable when your professional aspirations are in harmony with your personal goals.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You might feel overwhelmed by the feelings that tug on your heartstrings today. Unfortunately, you let yourself get hooked by the dramas of life too easily. Luckily, your inner strength can save you now. Even if you believe you’re exempt from playing by the same rules as everyone else, at least remember that open and honest communication is still the most important thing.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Coming to terms with your powerful desires may require that you do a few mental gymnastics today. However, it’s not as simple as you wish because clever Mercury is being sideswiped by mysterious Pluto. One minute you have everything figured out and then just a few minutes later, you’re not so sure. For now, it’s wise to take yourself a little less seriously. Having a healthy sense of humor is like using a lubricating oil that makes everything move along with less friction.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Whatever positive intentions you have now, they might not be sufficient to carry you through the day. Other people seem to be testing your composure to see if you can maintain your cool and still act graciously, even if you’re secretly ready to explode. Fortunately, you won’t lose your temper if you remember to release pressure gradually by expressing your feelings before they build to a critical level. Take a deep breath before you speak.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might be so focused on the outcome of a current work project that you become distracted from what’s happening in the present moment. The reflective Moon in your sign increases your connection to your subconscious mind, making it even more crucial to maintain a handle on what is real now. Honor the creativity that comes from your imagination while staying aware of what matters most.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You could work yourself into a state of high anxiety today as you strive to manage the complexities of your life. Thankfully, circumstances aren’t as overwhelming as they seem, yet your annoyance is real, nonetheless. Previous obligations may prevent you from being as socially active as you wish. Luckily, there’s no need to worry so much; many of the situations that are up in the air will sort themselves out within the next week.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your life is full of contradictions today because you must put out fires by responding to multiple situations. Paradoxically, you don’t seem to be overly concerned about what’s happening. It’s not that you don’t care; it’s just that you have so much on your plate now that it’s nearly impossible to get overly involved in any single issue. Thankfully, this detachment can work to your advantage by enabling you to stay calm while handling the demands of the day.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

A disagreement that springs up over differing points of view could be blown out of proportion today. Although there may be a very real issue behind the current dispute, it’s also possible that you’re battling with your own imagination. Anger can rear its ugly head, stemming from something entirely unrelated, such as your inability to reach your stated goals. Assuming full responsibility for your own success or failure minimizes the possibility of taking your frustration out on the wrong person.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may feel agitated about something at work today, but you don’t have an obvious target for your nervous energy. Powerful emotions that are stirring in your subconscious motivate you to find courage you didn’t know you had. Listen carefully to what you are being told now, even if the message isn’t what you want to hear. Instead of acting on your first impulse, wait for the deeper lessons to emerge before making your move.
